Jobman Workwear A
fter investigating the leading brands of durable clothing providers within the market, the ECA has struck a new workwear deal with Jobman
Workwear, which offers a good balance between cost and quality for our members.
Background Jobman Workwear was established in Sweden in 1975 and has a pedigree in outstanding garment manufacture. For many years Jobman designed and produced gear for companies such as the Swedish Forestry Commission, Snickers, Jonsered, Husqvarna and SAAB, as well as other well-known brands. Today, Jobman continues to make specialist
protective clothing and is renowned as one of the leading producers of high quality functional workwear.
Guaranteed to last Quality is something talked about by all companies, but Jobman’s published returns rate (0.02%!) is a testament to the robustness of its clothing. Jobman Workwear garments are made from
only the finest fabrics and accessories available, and are sewn together using the strongest yarns and seam techniques. Fabrics are guaranteed against shrinkage and are colourfast. The best possible accessories are selected to optimise the life expectancy of Jobman Workwear; metal jeans buttons for closures – and even the zips are covered by a lifetime warranty. Jobman has also launched the Three
Point Guarantee – a 12 month ‘insurance plan’ that guarantees the main failure points of commonly available workwear: seams, zips and shrinkage.

They feature a breathable, lightweight material which means that you do not sweat when working, yet still has all of durability that you need.

Features The trousers come with a host of features that save you time and money by having everything to hand when you need it. An adjustable hammer loop and a mobile phone holder – big enough to fit any phone – are on the waist-band. The YKK zip is backed up with a jeans button to give you guaranteed quality on the most important part of the trousers. The trousers feature double layered and reinforced ‘swing pockets’ which, when not required, tuck inside the existing trouser pockets or which, when working, can be worn externally to give easy access to fixings screws, electrical connectors, tape or nails stored in these outside pockets. The swing pockets tuck away perfectly in the patch pockets of the trouser – which are also reinforced and shaped so you can get in either pocket with either hand. The trousers feature a reinforced free-hanging
ruler pocket on the right leg, and on the left there is a bellowed cargo pocket with four external pockets for tools and pens and so on, and internally there is a secondary phone pocket and an ID card holder, which is on webbing so it cannot come off.
Protect those knees! The kneepad pockets are made from a Jobman produced polyamide, which is water repellent, oil and dirt repellent, and extremely durable. To aid this, Jobman has applied science – using a unique laminated kneepad pocket, so there
